Crispy Shrimp Tacos Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Cabbage Slaw

   In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, carrot, minced jalapeño, lime juice, and salt. Toss well and set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Prepare the Shrimp

   In a shallow dish, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, and pepper. In another dish, place beaten egg, and in a third dish, add panko breadcrumbs. Dip each shrimp first into the flour mixture, then into the egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs.

3. 3

   Fry the Shrimp

   Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the breaded shrimp in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

4. 4

   Make the Jalapeño Crema

   In a small bowl, mix sour cream, minced jalapeño, and a pinch of salt. Stir well to combine.

5. 5

   Assemble the Tacos

   Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet. Place a few pieces of fried shrimp on each tortilla, top with spicy cabbage slaw, drizzle with sweet chili sauce, and add a dollop of jalapeño crema. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
